Speaking THE Public Mind To the Herald: Your correspondents give them selves a great deal of agony about the condition of our streets and roads. They would seem to want the wliolo surface of the earth smoothed off so that they cun rldo without being humped. For I think If you will take an Inventory of these correspondents you will find that out of every ten at least twelve of them are automobile owners. The eltixens who don't own a "car" don't fill up your eolutnns with lamentations and complaints about the roads, lint they have to pay the bills Just the same for the upkeep of these thoroughfares. I should suggest <t( Is the day of “suggestions"—everybody has some plan whereby the race of man would lie emnnlrpated front misfortunes and evils forever, every suburban news paper in the country has published at least two), I should suggest, therefore. It) regard to the roads, that the fol lowing plan be adopted: I.et the automoblllsts work on the roads themselves. ls-t each "ear" owner be made lo put in a certain number of days each year with a pick and a shovel repairing the highways which lie decries so loudly. l.et enrh man fix his own favorite hump. (In the ease of the Unity and the Well-to do, their “show-furs" might be sub atltutedi. Cite them (he materials and tell them to go ahead and put the thing In shape to salt themselves. Then uu immense and blessed silence would reign in the land.

PEACE PRAYERS FOR WAR'S [NO All of Nation Kneeling in Prayer Monday for End of Ore&t European Conflict. Washington.—With all the nation kneeling In prayer tomorrow for tha end of the war In Europe, the epochs In American history were recalled when the president had proclaimed a day ol general supplication for divine Inter ventlon to sense or restore peace Between 1798 and 1881, seven such proclamations were made: 1798 —President John Adams named May 9th Is a national day of prayer because France threatened to make war upon the United States. 1815— President James Madison pro claimed January 12th us a day of prayer when trouble was brewing be tween the American republic and Al giers. 1861—President Abraham Lincoln designated the last Thursday In Sep tember fur national prayer for the restoration of peace between the North and South. 1863 President Lincoln called for a second day of prayer—April 30th—rec ommending that t|ie people keep the day "In all humility and with all re ligious solemnity to the end that th« united prayer of the nation may as cend to the throne of grace and bring down bountiful blessings upon our own country." 1864 For the third time during the War Between the States a general day of prayer was proclaimed. That was August Ist, 1864. Lincoln wrote: "In sincerity and truth let us rest humbly In the hope, authorized by the Divine teachings, that the united cry of the nation be heard on high snd answered with blessings no less than the pardon of our naltonnl sins and the restora tion of our divided and suffering country to its former happy condition of unity and peace.” 1869 -President Johnson proclaimed June Ist n day of prayer In commem oration of President Lincoln who died on April 15th, the victim of Booth’s bullet. 1881—President Arthur designated September 26th for general prayer to mark Iho burial of President Garfield, who had riled Hnptember 19th from an assnssin's Hltaek. President Wilson's rail for a day of supplication was Issued September 8. ll was the first time In American his tory that the people had been urged that "all God-fearing persons repair to their places of worship, there to unite their petitions to Almighty God that, overruling the eounsel of men, setting straight the things they can not governo r alter, taking pity on tho nations now In the throes of conflict. In 111 m mercy and goodness showing a way where men ran sen none. Ho vouchsafe Ills children healing penre Again, and restore once more that con cord among men and nations, without which there ran tie neither happiness nor true friendship nor any whole some fruit of toil or thought In the world.” While Adams was the first presi dent to proclaim prnver days, yet the people of the New England Colonies initiated periods of general prayer early In their history. As far buck as 1621 Governor Bradford called upon the people to give thanks for boun teous crops. That was In reality the first Thanksgiving Day in the western hemisphere. A second day of prayer was called In the colonies when drought threatened the crops. While Ihe people were gathered in their rhurches rain began to full In plenty. The crops were saved.
